N. GYLDENSTOLPE, BIRDS FROM RUSSIAN TURKESTAN. 17 



The first mentioned male shows the following measure- 

 ments: Wing = 163 mm.; tail = 124 mm,; bill =22 mm.; 

 tarsus = 33 mm. 



The mistle-thrush is represented in Central Asia by Tur- 

 dus viscÅvorus bonapartei Cab., which is characterized by a 

 greater size and a paler colour on the dorsal parts of the 

 body. The distribution of this subspecies is not exactly 

 prooved. 



For comparison I have measured some typical swedish 

 Turdus viscivorus L. which are of a smaller size.

One of the males from Naryn and one of the females 

 from Taschkent show the measurements given below. 



Wing in c? = 130, tail in J^ = 98, bill in J^ = 20, tarsus 

 in J* = 27 mm. 



Wing in ? = 129, tail in ? = 103, bill in ? = 17, tarsus 

 in $ = 27 mm. 



The southmost breeding place for this bird is said to 

 be the Tian Shan mountains according to Sewertzoff and 

 it seems at least to have been fairly common at Naryn and 

 Taschkent.
